If you need help finding the right Preston solicitors for you, perhaps we can help. Not all solicitors cover every area of law. So it’s important you find the right firm for you, and there is lots to consider.
What does a solicitor do?
A solicitor is a qualified legal professional who provides specialist legal advice on different areas of law. They are responsible for representing and defending a client’s legal interest.
Solicitors work for their clients in relation to legal issues. They can give you legal advice on different matters that they cover. And they are able to offer services that can help you resolve legal issues in those fields. Different solicitors are experts in different areas. For example, some solicitors specialise in divorce cases, family law, conveyancing or corporate law. While others may specialise in personal injury cases, help with will writing services or specialise in probate matters.
Regulation of solicitors.
In a large bustling city like Preston solicitors are plenty. You’ll find one on most high streets, or hear their radio ads. The first thing to ensure is that the solicitor or law firm you work with are regulated. Solicitors should be regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority or SRA. The SRA have a freely available register of their recommended solicitors, so be sure to ensure your potential firm are listed on there.
Finding a solicitor who covers what you’re looking for.
Most solicitors should list on their website, state in their adverts or advise you on the phone of the areas of work in which they specialise. So if you are buying or selling a property, look for a conveyancing solicitor. Divorce, adoption or guardianship matters are better taken care of by someone who specialises in family law. Undertaking mergers or acquisitions for your business, then a corporate lawyer is likely to be best placed to help you.
Other factors to consider.
If you need Preston solicitors to help you with something, identify those who cover what you need. Once you’ve identified the right type of firm, there are still some other important considerations. Locality is a very important factor – it’s worth taking a look at this piece we published on why using a local solicitor is important. But there are lots of other considerations too like size, how they deal with your enquiry and if they’ve been recommended by other clients. You can read more about that here.
You may not be in a position to get into the branch for some reason, so it may be that you need a home visit or a zoom video appointment which isn’t as widely available as you might hope. So if that’s something you need please do remember is very much something we can offer here at Marley Solicitors
